The Men Who Built the Liners - BBC4

BBC4 is tonight showing a documentary entitled The Men Who Built the Liners, as part of the Time Shift series, which focuses on the Clyde Shipyards and the men who worked there, as wellas th stories behind some of the more famous vessels constructed there such as the Queen Mary, the Queen Elizabeth and the QE2.

The University of Glasgow Library blog reveals how the producers visited its Archive Services earlier in the year to film some of the records of the Clyde Shipyards held there.

The Men Who Built the Liners is on at 9pm, and will be available for a week after on the BBC iPlayer at www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer.
